Baltimore at KC tonight

I pray for a Tie, or they both Lose.

I always root for our division opponents to lose.

I took kc to cover.

FOOTBALL IS BACK!

I think Baltimore will win. Don't know why or how, just a hunch

But I want KC (slightly)

I hope KC kills em. I hate those Ravens, mayhaps more than the Steelers.

I definitely hate them more than the Steelers. The reason why is an easy one. I remember when Irsay deserted the fans of Baltimore by loading up those Mayflower moving trucks in the middle of the night. I remember how wrong their fans said that was and how so many fans of other teams supported them. How they said nobody should be able to steal their team that way. Then 15 years later they sold out a new stadium and welcomed stealing our team as their own. I'll never forget that.

Sadly, both teams can't lose.

I think I'd give Baltimore a better chance if Roman was still their OC. That assumes that Henry is still capable of 4 quarters of bludgeoning.

I think I actually favor KC because of the D. Spagnolo has been there for awhile and has had those guys playing well. Chris Jones is probably the best DT in football with Donald's retirement.

Baltimore has a new, unproven DC in Zach Orr. Geno Stone led them in INTs last year, but is now with the Bengals. Madubuike led them in sacks, but KC's interior OL is good, and Clowney and Van Noy were 2nd and 3rd in sacks. Clowney's gone and I have doubts about Van Noy maintaining that level of success.

But it's a new year and we'll see.

Maybe Todd Monken can lean on the running game while the D finds its legs. Baltimore has some size up front.

Will be interesting to see if Steele gets some run for KC.

Is that 'Ham' Porter, lol?

the great Hambino

Worthy is what we wish Moore was

Lol. Moore immediately popped in my mind when I watched the Worthy jet sweep.

Man Mahomes sucks so bad.

Justin Tucker might be done. He’s got the yips on the long ball

Is it just me or does it seem like when a Brown leaves the game for a concussion not only does he not come back but will miss several games. When I’m watching other teams guys leave all the time to get checked for concussions when they clearly have whacked their head in some form or fashion, yet are cleared to come back in the game.

Is it me or does it seem like the Rats are relying on Qb runs way more. We say this every year but there’s no way this guy makes it through the year without getting hurt. He’s taking on a ton of hits.

I’m a big admirer of Lamar but he looks like crap tonight.

Missed it by a toe. KC wins 27-20.

Good game. I wouldn’t read too much into it. Both of these teams will be running like Ferrari’s in a few weeks. I took KC and lordy lordy I’m up 40! Maybe get some doughnuts and coffee with that!

great first game ... both teams will be very good obviously.

Baltimore losing always helps us

It was a decent game. Went about as I expected. It's hard to beat Mahomes & Co.

That was an ending for the ages. Truly is a game of inches.

Lamar looked like garbage, except on runs, until their last TD (the one not called back). I'm sure they'll work out the kinks though. It seems like they are still trying to find a way for him and Henry to fully gel. At times, Henry looked like garbage, and at other times, he looked like his old self. Despite his size, he seems to be a guy who needs to get outside the tackles. Like a diesel engine. Takes a while to get going, but once he gets going, he is truly a load.

one thing about Lamar ... I'm not sure that he will hold up if he's running THAT much. He was getting crushed and ran for 120 yards lol

I don't remember him taking too many huge hits, but I probably missed a few plays. He's pretty adept at avoiding major contact.

That being said, it's his seventh year in the league. It won't be getting much easier for him on that front.

I will say that one thing that does not bode very well for him is that he's on my fantasy team. Kiss of death.

I was reading Jackson's comments after the game on ESPN's site. He said he still says it was a touchdown and the refs were wrong. Not sure what he was looking at. It was so close but clearly out. Likely seemed to think the refs call on the field was "final" and they will just have to live with the overturned call. Roquan Smith said the replay wasn't clear enough to overturn the call.

I am guessing if they were on the other end they would have wanted it overturned.

yeah, they were wrong haha. It was clearly out of bounds.

The Ravens are a really good team who has had some bad play/breaks in big games.

They will surely be a division-type winner for as long as Harbaugh/Lamar are there and healthy

I do have to say it took me by surprise to learn that Harbaugh was the second oldest coach in the NFL.

One other thing - the Refs seemed to be really hot on those illegal formation calls toward the beginning of the game. Harbaugh eventually yelled at them that they weren't calling it fairly for both sides. As much as I hate them, I think he was right. I saw several times where the Chiefs had their tackles back a step and there was no call. I also saw several times later where the Ravens still had the illegal formation, but it was almost as if the Refs had just turned a blind eye to it for both teams.

good game overall, i think there will be a few weeks of adjustment as the refs settle in on how they are going to call things. I predict much of the same in our game. Just hope it doesn't happen in a way that affects outcome. Both offenses were kinda meh given their expectations, but there was a enough chunk plays to make it exciting. I swear both PM and LJ both live and die on the big play, like they'll have 5 or 6 meh or bad plays and then hit a 20 yard play. That will take its toll on a defense. I just hope we have a consistent day on offense since they haven't played a single snap yet

I hate ties . To me it seems like a win for both teams.

I thought it was a very good game! KC even last season went with the shorter passing game and not so much the long ball and that seems to be carrying over into this season so it was certainly no surprise to me. Lamar looked really lost trying to compete his longer passes. That was the knock on him earlier in his career but he seemed to have corrected that somewhat. Not sure if last night was an anomaly or a sign he's reverted back to that. Time will tell.

Jackson's main target last night didn't seem as though he was the target people would have considered most Likely going into the game.

Isaiah what you did there.

Tonight’s action can only be seen on Peacock to my knowledge. What load of crap.
I wonder if there’s a chance a link might pop into my DM around game time?

there are such streams! streameast I believe

j/c...

New kickoff rule seems like a flop. Hard sell on it's excitement in the offseason and, womp womp.

So much for getting all games on nfl plus. Bs

I cannot fully put into words how disappointing it is that the whole 'TV blackout' concept seems to be moving over into the streaming services.

There should be a law suite against the ‘Season Ticket’. They advertise as if you’re able to get ‘every game’ when they know full well it’s a lie.

50 points with 12 mins to go in the 3rd quarter. The NFL has to be loving this.
